How to Grow (Microgreens, 12–18 days)
-
Prep seed: For best germination, lightly crush/split the round seeds (mericarp) with a rolling pin or bottle. Optional soak 6–8 hrs, then drain.
-
Tray: Line a shallow tray with 1–2 cm fine seed compost or a hemp/coco/cellulose mat. Moisten evenly—damp, not soggy.
-
Sow: Spread in a single, fairly dense layer.
-
10×20″ tray: 20–30 g seed
-
Small ~15×20 cm tray: 4–6 g
-
-
Blackout: Cover for 3–4 days to encourage strong rooting. Keep evenly moist (prefer bottom-watering).
-
Grow on: Uncover to bright, indirect light with airflow. Bottom-water to avoid damping-off.
-
Harvest: Day 12–18 when cotyledons are open and first true leaves begin to show. Snip just above the medium; rinse and dry before use.
Optional Jar Sprouts (4–6 days — trickier)
-
Lightly crush/split seeds first. Soak 6–8 hrs, drain well.
-
Rinse & drain 2–3× daily; keep the jar tilted for airflow.
-
Harvest when short tails appear; final rinse and drain very thoroughly. (Note: coriander sprouts are more finicky than microgreens; microgreens give better flavour and yield.)
